The People's Republic of Spop Curnits is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its restrictive gun laws, suspicion of poets, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.683 billion Spop Curnitsians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.3%.

The very strong Spop Curnitsian economy, worth 252 trillion kronor a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 53,969 kronor, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 279,887 per year while the poor average 5,638, a ratio of 49.6 to 1.

Military spending is on the increase, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, Harry Potter books are banned, and military parades quietly tiptoe their way through the streets. Crime is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Spop Curnits's national animal is the giraffe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Spop Curnits is ranked 58,141^st in the world and 2^nd in Stanford for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 3,443.02 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
